Pattern Recognition by William Gibson

Cayce Pollard is an expensive, spookily intuitive market-research consultant. In London on a job, she is offered a secret assignment: to investigate some intriguing snippets of video that have been appearing on the Internet. An entire subculture of people is obsessed with these bits of footage, and anybody who can create that kind of brand loyalty would be a gold mine for Cayce's client. But when her borrowed apartment is burgled and her computer hacked, she realizes there's more to this project than she had expected.

Pattern Recognition is William Gibson's best book since he rewrote all the rules in Neuromancer. Gibson casts a master extrapolator's eye on our present, and shows it to us as if for the first time.
--Neil Gaiman, author of AMERICIAN GODS

A return to the present makes [Gibson] more prescient than ever... doubtless his best work since Count Zero [1986]. Gibson's narrative is more relaxed than it has been in years... his own laser-perfect cultural radar - Malcolm Gladwell meets Marshall McLuhan in a chat room - [carries] the story along. A slick but surprisingly humane piece of work from the father of cyberpunk.
--Kirkus Review
